Range Rover Velar Steering Angle Sensor Replacement Dubai

At Meta Mechanics, we specialize in providing precise automotive repairs to ensure your vehicle’s performance is always at its best. Recently, we completed a steering angle sensor replacement on a Range Rover Velar. During the repair, we identified several issues that were affecting the steering system’s functionality. Here are the key issues we found and the solutions we implemented to restore optimal performance.

Issues Found During Steering Angle Sensor Replacement:

1. Faulty Steering Angle Sensor: The steering angle sensor was found to be malfunctioning, causing erratic behavior in the vehicle’s stability control system and triggering warning lights on the dashboard.
   Solution:
   We replaced the faulty steering angle sensor with a high-quality OEM part, ensuring proper communication with the vehicle’s electronic stability control and power steering systems, thus eliminating warning lights and restoring optimal vehicle control.
2. Misalignment of Sensor Calibration: The sensor calibration was off, leading to inaccurate readings of the steering wheel’s position, which affected systems like traction control and lane-keeping assistance.
   Solution:
   After replacing the sensor, we recalibrated it to factory specifications. This restored the correct alignment and ensured accurate data for the vehicle’s advanced driving assistance systems.
3. Damaged Wiring Harness: We discovered that the wiring harness connected to the steering angle sensor had been damaged, leading to intermittent communication loss between the sensor and the vehicle’s computer.
   Solution:
   We repaired and reinforced the damaged wiring, ensuring secure and consistent electrical connections, allowing the new steering angle sensor to function properly and reliably.
4. Faulty Steering Control Modules: The malfunctioning sensor had caused the steering control modules to receive inconsistent data, affecting steering response and performance.
   Solution:
   We reset the control modules and verified that the new sensor provided accurate data. This restored proper steering feedback, ensuring smooth and responsive driving.
5. Increased Steering System Wear: The malfunctioning steering angle sensor was leading to increased wear on the steering system due to improper system feedback, affecting vehicle handling and causing premature component degradation.
   Solution:
   With the new sensor in place, we conducted a full system check, ensuring that all steering components were functioning optimally. This prevented further wear and improved the longevity of the steering system.
